Volkswagen Polo 1.0 TSI 95

The Volkswagen Polo 1.0 TSI 95 reaches 60 mph in 9.92 s (100 km/h in 10.53 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 17.45 s, tripping the lights at 78.8 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.77 s and the eighth mile in 11.21 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the Polo 1.0 TSI 95

The 2022 Volkswagen Polo 1.0 TSI 95 is a front-drive turbocharged car of 1,165 kg with 94 bhp, which works out at 81 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.77 s — so most of what it has to give arrives once it is already moving. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 9,988th quickest to 60 mph, and the 13th quickest of the 16 Volkswagens here. Its 78.8 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Volkswagen Polo 1.0 TSI 95 0-60 time?
The Volkswagen Polo 1.0 TSI 95 reaches 60 mph in 9.92 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 9,988th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Volkswagen Polo 1.0 TSI 95 quarter mile time?
17.45 s at 78.8 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 11.21 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.77 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Volkswagen Polo 1.0 TSI 95 have?
94 bhp and 1,165 kg, which is 81 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbocharged, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 187 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Volkswagen Polo 1.0 TSI 95?
Closest here on pace: MG ZS 4dr 2.0 D 100 (9.97 s), MG ZS 5dr 100 D (9.97 s), Skoda Fabia 1.2 TSI 90 (9.87 s). Each one can be raced against the Volkswagen Polo 1.0 TSI 95 in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Volkswagen Polo 1.0 TSI 95 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-16. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
